Monsanto Most Evil Company

While these two giants are negotiating their offer, money more than enough to stop poverty in the world, we the people need to focus on the results of this transition. Monsanto is considered as the world most evil company (Source: http://www.booboone.com/monsanto/ ). From aspartame to GMO seeds, this giant is a real reincarnation of evilness. We need to hope Bayer will, at least, bring some change in the direction this corporation is taking, and save the planet.
